Abstract: A ribbon roll held by a ribbon holder comprises a cylindrical member, an ink ribbon wound around the cylindrical member and a data holding section which is arranged on surface of the cylindrical member and has plural areas where identification codes indicating information relating to the ink ribbon are recorded A driver rotates the cylindrical member held by the ribbon holding section. A detector detects components of the identification code and the mark from a position facing the data holding section of the ribbon roll held by the ribbon holder. A rotation controller enables the driver to rotate the cylindrical member to an extent to which the detector can detect the identification code. A reading controller carries out reading of the identification code by taking the mark as a reference from the components detected by the detector in synchronization with the rotation by the rotation controller.

Abstract: According to one embodiment, an image forming apparatus includes an image forming unit, plural rollers, and a roller supporting mechanism. The image forming unit forms an image on a sheet carried in a predetermined carrying direction and extends in an orthogonal direction that is orthogonal to the predetermined carrying direction. The plural rollers are arranged opposite the image forming unit with a carrying path of the sheet arranged in-between and are arranged in a plural number next to each other in the orthogonal direction. The roller supporting mechanism, while pressing the sheet toward the image forming unit, supports the plural rollers in such a way that each roller independently moves, between a carrying position where the sheet is carried in the carrying direction and a separation position where the sheet is separated from the image forming unit.
